116th by Shoshana Bean with Lyrics

This is a song from Shoshana Bean's album. The first time I heard this song I was honestly stunned. Its a very simple yet beautiful song. Whenever I hear this song I replay it 3 to 5 times. I dont know why but this song really speaks to me. I noticed that the lyrics are not available online so I included them here plus the video I made for the song so that everyone can hear it. I dont know why but I guess I can relate to this song. This is honestly the first time that a song had this kind of effect on me. Just listen to it and you might undertand what I'm saying. Enjoy. ^^

116th Lyrics

You wouldn't believe how things have changedHardly anything looks the sameIt used to be a quiet street,now people pass on hurried feetYou wouldn't believe how things have changedOn 116th

It was a place where love beganWhere you and I walked hand in handOn a summer night in late JulyI sang to you a lullabyNot everything ends the way you plannedOn 116th

All we had was a little apartment,mattress on the floor where we sleptWe lived small, but we dreamed bigand love was growing where we lay

Back then i could only think of now,And now I look back and wonder howHow could I wished away the time,when life was simple, you were mineI'd give all that I have to havejust one more day (One more day... oh...)

In your arms to feel you hold me tight,to sleep upon your chest at nightI wanna go backI'd give anything to go back
